Does telnet support creating server sockets? No. Does telnet support IPsec? No. Does telnet let you specify the tcp window size?

We provide a tool that *is designed for creating and debugging sockets*. You instead want a tool for insecure remote login that happens to sort-of work for creating and debugging sockets and your justification for wanting it is that you can use it for debugging sockets. >From your previous posts, you've clearly not read the nc man page and have >absolutely no idea what it is capable of.
